I have moderate to severe dry eye. I take flax seed oil and fish oil which keep mine lubricated and no need to get prescription meds. I take one gel capsule of Flax seed at 1000mg and two gel caps of fish oil at 1,000mg each. For the flaxseed I buy from NOW and the premium fish oil is from Natures Way. Both can be ordered online.

There’s also OCuSOFT eye cleaning foam, and the Bruder eye mask. The foam cleans away debris and oils. Keeping the eyelid closed, lightly scrub with finger tips and a light touch, all along the eyelash line both top and bottom. Then rinse off. It’s awesome because your eyes feel clean afterward. The mask gets heated up in the microwave for 20-30 seconds and you lay it on your closed eyes for 10 minutes, once or twice a day. The heat melts the natural oils that gather at the lash follicles and these oils help keep your eyes moist. The oils can get clogged and this contributes to your dryness. An air purifier (or more) in your home can also help.

There are actually two causes of dry eyes. The first is not enough tear production (which is addressed in this video), but the second is not enough oil being secreted from the small oil glands on your eyelids. This is called Meibomian Gland Disease (MGD). Without sufficient oil, the tear film evaporates too quickly leading to dry eyes. For the first type, there are prescription drugs such as Restasis to increase tear production. For the MGD, there’s no prescription drug, but symptoms are eased by taking Omega 3’s, using hot compresses on your eyes once a day and using preservative-free eye drops several times a day.

Thanks for the tips! If they ever talk about oral health, I'll probably write a complete essay! After all the jaw surgeries, a very limited opening and difficulty chewing, I've had so many problems in my mouth and consequently have lost several teeth. And because of all the trouble I've had, I can't wear a standard denture and I'm having enough trouble with a partial. I'm working with an oral surgeon and a prosthodontist. Their hope is to place two implants and attach a permanent bridge if I can open enough for them to hammer the implants in. You have to have enough room just to get the implants secured in place. If that's successful, I should get the bridge next. I can't even open my mouth enough for the impressions, they have to use the pedo impression trays. I hope, some day, that I'll be able to eat like a normal person. I've had braces twice and arch bars after a jaw surgery and my jaws were wired shut (at Thanksgiving). It's a very long process before all the work is done. I guess this is the beginning of my essay.😉 I spent 11 years having surgeries, I have several crowns and even had a root canal (on my birthday). I'll spare you all of the details but I'm finally at a place where I have hope for a solution. I've had so many jaw surgeries that regular dental work doesn't bother me. I started using Biotene for my dry mouth. I don't chew gum very often because it wears out my jaws. I've heard lemon drops help with dry mouth but my jaws don't like citrus. I appreciate all the tips, I'm always looking for other things I can do. One day I'll be able to eat steak again (sorry Dr Weening).😘 Or take a bite of celery!☺️
